Nectarines

I had to share this! See this little tree? It is a Nectarine tree. It is so small, but wow did it produce the fruit this year! Nectarines are my favorite fruit, so I was very excited starting in spring when I spotted all the blossoms growing. I just can not believe how many nectarines came off this tree. Chelsea and Melanie eat like 3-4 a day. We picked like 12 the first day. 6-8 more the next week and then sent about about 8-10 home with my parents and this picture was taken today. This is the last of them! We were excited because usually the birds get half. This year we got every single one! OOO, I am going to just miss summer fruit!
Chelsea helped me pick!

Thanks mom for helping me plant them. So yum!
